MANCHESTER, New Hampshire – Mark Campbell, national political director for the Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) campaign, tells Breitbart News Cruz’s victory in the Iowa caucuses Monday can be replicated in the New Hampshire primary next week.

No such conclusion can be drawn from a single data point...lets talk next week after NH.
As a Cruz supporter I believe that is factually false and politically unhelpful.
This is why I am waiting until NH to decide who I will support in full. Right now it is between Trump and Cruz.
Whah... no vacations during primary season Dr. Carson.
The Blondie in me thinks Tuco knows it’s true.
“Dirty ticks” being using Trump’s record against him and citing a CNN report that Carson is basically doing everything but actually quitting the race.
Bingo!
[I doubt it. FOX is already on the get Cruz tact this morning.]
And here in SC, it’s even worse, our former ‘conservative’ Sen. Tim Scott has officially endorsed Rubio.
You can bet the Establishedment elites have promised him a deal he can’t refuse.
Please post a reference about where CRUZ personally said Carson was dropping out.
Otherwise the LIAR shoe is on the other foot.
I predict Rubio beats Cruz. GOPe will be pushing hard for Rubio. The Cruz Preacher schtick won’t work in NH.
Carson is an idiot. Only a fool says, “I’m taking a break and going home to Florida after Iowa.”
Any number of people could take that as “I’m ready to throw in the towel.”
Now - just because people read it that way doesn’t mean the Cruz campaign didn’t anything dirty. Please point to a single statement by the candidate himself, or an actual official in his campaign, where they said, “Carson is quitting!”
Caucus goers drew their own conclusion. Rep Steve King drew his own conclusion. Just because he endorsed Cruz doesn’t mean he is campaign spokesperson.
Get over it. Carson was DUMB and he paid for it.
I’m very disappointed in Ted Cruz and especially Steve King for resorting to dirty tricks. They need to answer to Dr. Carson. He is justifiably outraged.
Cruz is lying about Trump lett and right. He and Rush are on this Trumpcare crap that Trump still wants single payer. He did want it until he looked at it from the business side, now he wants private plans.
What they’re using is, Trump says he’d rather lose than let people die in the streets. Because politicians can’t construct a program with private insurance but also a safety net, they think it’s impossible. It’s not, basically what we had before Obamacare except our safety net was broken and abused.
Cruz’s people told voters in an ACTIVE CAUCUS that another candidate was dropping out when it was not true. Voters didn’t draw their own conclusions, they were lied to and it’s not just bad PR, votes were changed.
I’m a huge Cruz supporter, but I don’t see how he wins in NH - they tend to vote for NE liberals and moderates (think McCain, Romney, etc.), so that is Trump’s state to lose. I think Cruz comes out with a strong 2nd or 3rd place and then goes into friendlier territory in SC and the SEC primary in a strong position.
I don’t think so, since part of their total votes came from Cruz camp misquoting info on Carson and likely swayed some voters.
Deceivers and those based from pride/self desires will in time be dealt with by God.
Cruz may have accepted Jesus as Savior, but recent events show me he still has some areas of himself and life to surrender to our LORD Jesus Christ.
Exactly.
Cruz people = caucus goers.
Apparently you don’t know the rules, but caucus goers can say pretty much anything they want. They saw the news reports and drew a conclusion. Carson was the idiot for making such a stupid statement right before the caucus.
But here’s a newsflash: I can walk into a caucus and say, “Carson *will* drop out. Vote for Cruz instead.” No rules broken. It’s called free speech and a statement of opinion. I could also say, “Trump is an alcoholic,” if I wanted. Every voter is obligated to inform themselves of the facts and be prepared to debate.
Get over it or maybe Free Speech and voting rights are something that shouldn’t be allowed around folks like you?
thankfully God has the last word on Cruz and his motives and actions.
In many ways he is a Christina in name only.
I pray he gets right with God and inline with God.
What’ he’s really saying-—”We barely won the state everyone knew we would, so now we have a snowball’s chance in NH. “
